No problem. I apologize for being so harsh. Guess that's part of my masculine side coming out.
I do hope you realize that, especially on the Internet where people can't hear you or see you, if you feel you have to accompany a statement with
"no offense" you probably shouldn't say it at all. Or at least if you do say it, sure as hell, somebody's gonna take offense.

its a question I need to think more about apparently, I mean what defines femine?
If you care for someone, feminine?
Talk about feelings?
That picture? That's hot!
Well, very simplistically, I think there's a scale. One end, Manly man, the other Girlie girl. (and I'm talking about heterosexuals here.
Homosexuality adds another tangent to the equation.)
But a manly man is burly, hairy, deep voice, simple, Sporto, jock, never cooks or cleans, works (maybe too much) doesn't care about colors or art,
hangs out with the boys, goes fishing, hunting, likes one kind of music, probably heavy metal, would die before seeing a 'chick flick', calls his
wife 'baby', you get the picture.
A girlie girl speaks with a soft voice, has her hair AND nails done, has a 'wardrobe' that changes often, has 7 pairs of pumps exactly the same
except for the color, calls 'pink' salmon. Likes all kinds of music, waxes, will wear jeans as long as they have a label, but she irons them first,
she's hard to read, thinks that if you loved her, you'd know how she's feeling, loves romance books and movies, favorite activity: Shopping. You
know, feminine.

I'll say I'm 60% female and prolly 40% male. That seems crazy....oh shoot not another identity crisis I'm getting too old for this
Sounds like we have a similar past. I was climbing trees then went directly to climbing boys!
It does seem crazy at first. But I believe it's good to have a balance in all things.
